BELGRADE – The Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure, Tomislav Momirovic, today visited the works of the Belgrade bypass project and on that occasion called on contractors and investors to intensify construction works so that the project is completed within of the established deadlines.

Momirović first had a meeting with representatives of the Chinese company “Power Tea Construction Corporation”, which is carrying out the works, and then he visited the section around the Straževica tunnel and then other places within the project.

“Everyone in the country knows what a detour around Belgrade is, because it has been talked about for decades. I hope, and I have such an order from President Aleksandar Vučić, that I will be the last minister to supervise the works on the Belgrade bypass. and we have to finish that job in the next two years, and we will act in that direction, “Momirovic told Tanjug.

Remember that the section is wide and complex, which includes several sectors, as well as that there are small delays around those that agreed with the Chinese partners to intensify the works.

“I call on contractors and investors to intensify construction works, these are unusually good weather conditions, now we need to intensify and complete the works because it will be more difficult in December and January,” said the minister.

He points out that the dynamics have been agreed with the Chinese partners, that is, it has been defined where the works should be accelerated and where there are problems.

The problems are mostly legal in nature and related to expropriation, he said.

We will do everything we can to accelerate construction to help contractors get the job done right, Momirovic said.

Regarding the current epidemiological situation, Momirović says that construction works continue as usual and that they will not affect the works, as well as that everyone must follow the instructions of the Crisis Personnel and adhere to them.

The works of this bypass are complex, there are several sections and the deadline for the completion of the work is the end of 2022, the minister recalled.

“We will try to complete the road to Bubanj Potok, on the section of sector 6, in the first half of 2022, and let the traffic pass,” Momirović said.

The section in which the works are developed is divided into three sectors, as follows: Sector 4 includes the construction works of the left lane of the highway from the bridge over the Sava near Ostru? Nica to the Orlovača loop, in a length of 7.7 km. Within sector 4, the left lane of the road is projected, then two tunnels: Lipak and Zeleznik and the construction of three bridges: bridge no. 9, 10 and 11 (phase II), as well as the remaining works on the Orlovača loop (phase II).

Sector 5 includes the construction works of the left lane of the motorway from the Orlovača loop to the Straževica tunnel (including the tunnel) over a length of 3.1 km. Within sector 5, it is necessary to report the complete left lane of the motorway, which includes the construction of the route, the pipeline of the left tunnel of the Straževica tunnel and 3 bridges – bridge no. 13, 14 and 15.

Sector 6 includes the construction works of both lanes (full profile) of the road from the Straževica tunnel to the Bubanj Potok loop (including the loop), over a length of 9.6 km. Within sector 6, the right and left lanes of the road are fully planned, including the construction of the route, the Beli Potok tunnel, the Avala and Bubanj Potok loops, as well as 2 bridges – bridge no. 16 and 17.

The “Bubanj Potok” circuit is part of the beltway section around Belgrade from the bridge over the Sava near Ostružnica to Bubanj Potok, and is 20.4 kilometers long. The main contractor in this section, whose construction costs 207 million euros, is the Chinese company “Power Tea Construction Corporation”, and the subcontractor is the azvirt “Azvirt” of Azerbaijan, as well as national companies.

Authorities have previously indicated that the completion of the bypass will allow freight traffic to move to the city center after several decades. Acting Director of “Roads of Serbia” Zoran Drobnjak also visited the works with Minister Momirović and representatives of the Chinese company.
